Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vanilla extract until creamy and smooth.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
In a separate bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined.
Stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and chopped nuts (if using).
Using a rounded tablespoon, drop spoonfuls of cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheets, leaving about 2 inches between each cookie for spreading.
Bake in the preheated oven for 9 to 11 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and the centers look set.
Remove the baking sheets from the oven and allow the cookies to cool on the sheets for 2 minutes. Then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
Store the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week, or freeze for longer storage.
